Join us for a meeting of the New York-Russia Public Policy Series, co-hosted by the Harriman Institute at Columbia University and the New York University Jordan Center for the Advanced Study of Russia.

In the wake of unprecedented Western sanctions, the Russian economy has taken a serious hit, but so far, it has fared better than many experts predicted. Is this situation sustainable? Will Russia be able to withstand the upcoming oil embargo and the possible oil price cap? What are the prospects for further economic restrictions against Russia? Our panel of experts will discuss the scope of the sanctions regime, the damage that the sanctions have inflicted and will inflict on the Russian economy and its particular sectors, as well as the countermeasures taken by Russian authorities and their effectiveness.
